The governors meeting was on February 20th I believe; LePage didn't endorse until the 26th. And he didn't endorse until Christie did. Maybe he sees the handwriting on the wall? Or maybe LePage thinks his unpopularity will help take Trump down.
“Maybe he sees the handwriting on the wall?” or he is trying to get inside Trump’s campaign to figure out a way to sabotage it. I wonder how well Donald knows him?
Could this be some of what your talking about?

Here in Maine, Gov. LePage is only unpopular with moonbat liberals.
LePage was loyal to Christie because Christie spent both time and money helping LePage get re-elected in 2014.
LePage did not want to endorse someone else when Christie dropped out because Jebbie was still in the race. Some members of the Bush family endorsed LePage for governor in 2014. Barbara Bush even made a few TV commercials singing the praises of LePage. LePage did not want to endorse Jeb, but he also did not want to go against the Bush family because they can him some endorsements during the Maine gubernatorial race in 2014.
